Hi all,

Just starting to develop an interactive water app for BB10. The result so far:

Hope to hear comments from you guys

Cheers,

Amazing ! Is this app made in C++ ?

That is really good, Do you have a bar file I could test on my dev alpha?

I imagine this must be coded in native because of the speed needed for the graphics. Does WebGL have this capability to render distortions of material, because then it could also be done by manipulating the 3D shape of an object. I still think it is native though, using some very clever algorithms to simulate image warping due to refraction.

Everything is done using native sdk. Next feature, explore using photo from gallery as background

Thanks, I will try to export a bar file (my first time developing bb app, need to look up the documentation on bar file). It will be good to know how it perform on dev alpha

Hi all,

Just uploaded another video

Added a "rain" mode and option to select background image (GUI using Cascades).

Cheers,

Looks awesome! Especially the rain!

Love it!!
now just a quick question because I don't think it anyone else has asked. Once you get this official and approved will I be able to use these as my background? Or will I only be able to make this happen while this is the main app open on my phone. I would of loved something like this on my PlayBook but everything that exists so far will only let this happen while it is the main app that is open on the screen.

Perhaps as a lockscreen/standby screen ?
